TheyTookErrJobs: Electronica

FilthyBorgir 01.25.11	I'd say look into both EPs Skrillex made, that's the only electronica I've heard so far. You should try it out.
fulgrim 01.25.11	Boards of Canada - Music has the right to children Shpongle - Tales of the inexpressible
starry 01.25.11	I don't get 1 either, don't remember 2. I agree with Skrillex, particularly the second EP called Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites. Delphic's Acolyte is nice electronic pop. For something more challenging and minimalistic StrangeZero - Newborn Butterflies.
InFiction 01.25.11	Dntel - Life Is Full Of Possibilities I listen to this while I go to sleep. It's very calming.
Deviant. 01.25.11	You might wanna be a little more specific, electronica is a term that simply means electronic music. Like what have you heard and liked?
Baphomet 01.25.11	You should ask Deviant. But these should be good to start from: Shpongle - Ineffable Mysteries of Shpongleland Skrillex - Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites Feed Me - Feed Me's Big Adventure Telemetrik - My Lightyear OceanLab - Sirens of the Sea Boys Noize - Oi Oi Oi Daft Punk - Discovery deadmau5 - For Lack of a Better Name Freeland - Cope Noisia - Split the Atom (Not so accessible but the most amazing d'n'b ever) The Prodigy - The Fat of the Land
